Tyler Hutchison

Tyler Hutchison (1838-) was an American cattle rustler from Texas. In 1873, he hired two Mexicans to help him take a drove of cattle to Abilene, but they left him after demanding higher wages. Hutchison later found the outlaw Blake Wood at the scene of a Comanche attack and rescued him in exchange for help with the cattle drive. Ironically, just as he was bemoaning the "fair-weather friends" that his Mexican companions were, he noticed approaching lawmen and abandoned Wood, who was captured and hanged as a rustler.
